DNF - stopped at Chapter 9
I've picked up this book to clear up a few names and mentions at work, but I can confirm this isn't my favourite time period. It's not badly written, on the contrary, it's very thorough and seems well research, but it's quite dry.
It dives right into the topic, which made it difficult for me to understand everything as I am unfamiliar with the period of the Civil War. Perhaps it'll be easier to go back to it another time.
